After loading, it seems to be quite responsive. It's just the initial loading that is taking a long time.

I can also add the kernel log messages from the same time. Seems like some kind of packet storm to the PLC?

One i wrote this to measure elepse time When xMeasure is true is starts en when false it stops and time is messured. FUNCTION_BLOCK FB_ElapseTime VAR_INPUT xMeasure: BOOL; END_VAR VAR_OUTPUT xRisingEdge: BOOL; xFallingEdge: BOOL; tElapsed: TIME; ltElapsed: LTIME; ltPrev_Elapsed: LTIME; ltElapsedMax: LTIME; END_VAR VAR xLastValue: BOOL; LTIMEStart: LTIME; LTIMEEnd: LTIME; tonReset: TON:= (IN:= TRUE, PT:= TIME#30S0MS); END_VAR ------------------------------------------- xRisingEdge:= (xLastValue XOR xMeasure) AND xMeasure; xFallingEdge:= (xLastValue XOR xMeasure) AND NOT xMeasure; IF xRisingEdge THEN ltPrev_Elapsed:= ltElapsed; LTIMEStart:= LTIME(); END_IF IF xMeasure OR xFallingEdge THEN LTIMEEnd:= LTIME(); END_IF ltElapsed:= LTIMEEnd - LTIMEStart; ltElapsedMax:= MAX(ltElapsedMax, ltElapsed); tElapsed:= LTIME_TO_TIME(ltElapsed); xLastValue:= xMeasure; tonReset(); IF tonReset.Q THEN tonReset.IN:= FALSE; ltElapsedMax:= LTIME#0NS; END_IF Meaby this will help.

If you use LTIME() you will be very accurate and be able to have a normal task cycle time.

Post by jonasz on Deploy LicenseServer for Linux SL ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
The machine I'm currently using (Celeron J1900) already has the Kernel RT patch. I checked the performance according to the documentation. After running CyclicTest for 4 cores, the value for each core is around 6-7. I went through the entire process according to the documentation (I envy the TaskMonitor results in the documentation). The documentation states: "CODESYS Virtual Safe Time Provider The CODESYS Virtual Safe Time Provider is a standard interface that the user can use to transfer a second and external time base to the CODESYS Virtual Safe Control. The implementation is done as a client, which must run on another system with an independent time base." How do I implement this? I've been struggling for two weeks now - I'm too old to give up.

Post by timvh on EXCEPTION [watchdog] how to find position cause ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Monitor what your current cycle time is (in the Task Configuration when you are online). If this is sometimes close to 200ms, then change your code (e.g. limit the loops, or prevent copying a lot of data between objects). Or just set the Watchdog time (or sensitivity) higher if you don't care that it sometimes takes longer than 200ms. If you want to find out which objects in your application consume the most time, then buy a PDE (Professional Developer Edition) license. With this you get a license for the Profiler. This can help you a lot to find the root cause, because it will create a nice overview of all objects, their calls and the time (percentage) it takes to execute it.
